Incoterms 2010
The Incoterms rules or International Commercial terms are a series of pre-defined
commercial terms published by the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) widely
used in international commercial transactions

The eighth published set of pre-defined terms, Incoterms 2010

defines 11 rules,
reducing the 13 used in Incoterms 2000 by introducing two new
rules
("Delivered at Terminal", DAT; "Delivered at Place", DAP) that
replace four rules of the prior version ("Delivered at Frontier",
DAF; "Delivered Ex Ship", DES; "Delivered Ex Quay", DEQ;
"Delivered Duty Unpaid", DDU)

Name of Institution

In the prior version, the rules were divided into four

categories, but the 11 pre-defined terms of Incoterms
2010 are subdivided into two categories based only
on method of delivery.
The larger group of seven rules applies regardless of
the method of transport, with the smaller group of
four being applicable only to sales that solely involve
transportation over water.

The seven rules defined by Incoterms 2010 for any mode(s) of

his premises (works, factory, warehouse, plant) on the date
agreed upon.

the risks for bringing the goods to their final

seller does load the good, he does so at buyer's risk
and cost.

The four rules defined by Incoterms 2010 for international
trade where transportation is entirely conducted by water
are:

the vessel and the port where the goods are to
be loaded, and there is no reference to, or

explained that FCA should be used for
container shipments.
